I am worried that BR is suffering from second season syndrome. He is beginning to react to criticism of his signings by defending them no matter what and condemning those others suggest he should have bought.
He is also trying to vindicate any and all tactics employed and shielding those players he likes.
Everyone has to learn from their mistakes and in his first season he was prepared to drop any who did not preform that ruthless streak must return if he is to win in Europe.

Mibi getting pissed off heating how the likes of signing Dorrans jack and world beater Jamie Murphy are wonderful or mibi he’s doing what good managers do and back there players publicly if he started to slate his players publicly the dressing room would be in uproar and he would be finished. BR is a clever guy.

Second season syndrome wff? It's not even a thing just a phrase made up to suit some unhappy Liverpool fans after the season they had after the near miss. Jumped on by Sevco fans as they never do anything original. Most of the managers in the prem suffer from first season syndrome if the above is a thing. Still top of the league won a cup in Europe. We all commented on how the team has not been as consistent but we are winning everything so far? Don't fear for BR we have a better manager now than he was when Liverpool got him. Fact. but to come out with what you did is very poor imo. Fickle.

Don't know where this 2nd season mince comes from ( seed planted by UJ) rodgers 2nd season with liverpool was the closest they have come to winning EPL, need to change it to end of third season syndrome as that's when it started to go downhill.

Never heard as much drivel since UJ last posted. If this is 2nd season syndrome I"ll take it every season. Healthy lead at top of league, first trophy won, CL qualification and in Europe in February. Think Jonace has been taken in by clowns like UJ and his likes.

He has conducted himself impeccably since he arrived, amidst sniping from ex-players and 'know-f-all-pundits'about our CL record - even though we are the only club in the country that is in any shape or stature to play in Europe in any shape or form (and have been for many years) .
One poor performance and disappointing result against Sevco had the hun-media foaming at the mouth and hailing Murty The Messiah, but realistically, let's get things into perspective.

BR is in the remarkable situation of winning a treble - undefeated - in his first term, so it was always going to be well nigh impossible to better perfection, or replicate it this season?
We have had a string of injuries and form lapses, all season, but have still managed to lose only one competitive game all season, win (defend) our first trophy, qualify for the EL and stand 8 points clear at the top of the league. Yes, we have not played as well as last season; but that could be down to certain players having 'second season syndrome? '

Hopefully the winter break and transfer window, will refresh, recharge and recover our efforts in 2018 and we can enjoy another season of great football, players on top of their game and more success on and off the pitch.
It's one of the best times in our history so just enjoy it guys.

So if you describe it as "second season syndrome" What would you describe Delias second season? Our token hun is a wee mod going through a mid life crisis. New manager syndrome will explain McCoist over to you Kenny who passes it onto McCall who drops it and the journey is set back a year! In comes the next England manager in waiting but Warburton is outed as a fraud and resigned (allegedly). In comes the poor man's Mourinho with his amigos.

Sadly he has departed. His sound bites where a joy to behold. Next up is Murty for his second stint. Im sure whoever's next in line will continue the comedy roadshow lurching from one disaster to another!

This second season syndrome is a real pain in the arse . One domestic defeat in about forty games, still in Europe, won cup already won and 8 pts clear at the top of the table . Is it any wonder the fans are moaning and groaning in the stands when they witness just how far the team has regressed .
The only reason B R will leave us within four years is that he is fed up with the moaning and groaning and abuse by fans of his players .
